gosh, I can barely make a decent castle. great picture!

Sukhmandir Kaur said...

That's quite a sand sculpture. I pushed around a little sand myself last weekend with a similar idea in mind, but certainly nothing to that extent. Happy WW

betchai said...

i took a sand scuplture workshop before, it was fun, yet also hardwork, i know i can never make one like this on my own :)

J Rodney said...

That is pretty cool! I tried to make a sandcastle at the beach on Sunday....needless to say I won't even put up a photo:)

That's so cool! Great capture! Happy WW!

Snowcatcher said...

Extraordinary! That takes SO much more work than a plain, upside-down bucket castle!

catsynth said...

Wow, that is very impressive.
(So much work to simply be washed back into the sea.)

You have made the sand monument a permanent one now.

lina said...

I like to look at these beautiful sandcastles. The people who build these are so creative.

Dazediva said...

Impressive sculpting ! I've worked with a lot of sand sculptors for events and it never ceases to amaze me just how detailed & intricate their work is .. !

Happy WW to you :)

Deb: It was part of an annual sandcastle building contest and everyone had 4 hours to build their masterpieces.

And Miles To Go: I agree. Every team had a San Francisco theme although I don't remember a dragon here. :)

AussiePomm: From the hands of sand sculpting artists. It's amazing to see them work. From sand into art.

Au and Target: It takes lots of skills and imagination.

Caite: Thanks. Keep trying, practice makes perfect?

Sukhmandir Kaur: Did you take a photo of your sculpture? We want to see what you built.

betchai: I didn't know there are sculpture workshops. This particular sculpture was a team effort.

FrugalMom: Maybe this one will inspire you to make your next sand sculpture.

scrapchick: Thanks! Happy WW!

Snowcatcher: It did take lots of buckets of sand to make that mound which eventually became the head of the dragon.

catsynth: It was a lot of work by the teams. It would be interesting to see how long it stayed up without it being disturbed.

rainfield61: It is permanent until the wind and rain comes.

lina: I took photos of more, so stay tuned for my next post.

steve from bethere2day: Thanks for dropping by.

Poetic Shutterbug: This was happening in San Francisco, probably very close to your neighborhood last weekend.

EastCoastLife: There were 20+ teams and each sculpture had to have a San Francisco theme. This particular team was very creative to come up with this design.

Dazediva: I guess the possibilities are endless when working with sand and water.
